COURSE IN CWtILIAN
RELIEF WORK BEGUN
Dr. Morse Addresses First
Two Meetings
of Class
The six weeks' course in
home service work given by
Miss Margaret Laing of the As
sociated Charities with Miss
Helen Kohn as her assistant,
under the auspicies of the Red
Cross, has begun at the Univer
sity of South Carolina. The class
meets four times a week, begin
ning on Tuesday and continuing
thru Friday. Prof. Josiah Morse
will cooperate with Miss Laing.
He delivered the first two lec
tures to the class.
The object of the course is to
train workers to look after the
families of soldiers and sailors in
the camps and the trenches.
The man who goes into the army
very frequently leaves a family
totally dependent on him for sup
port, and who also has been ac
customed to leave to him solution
of most of the problems of every
day life. The wife is suddenly
confronted with such problems
as insurance, rents, repairs on
property and a number of similiar
duties requiring the exercise of
trained business judgment. She
very often will have to make the
household budget meet a very
limited income and, not being
accustomed to dealing with such
problems, she may find it difli
cult to decide them in the most
economical malner. In such
situations the home service work
er will step in and tactfully and
pleasantly offer advice.
In preparing to accomplish such
work, Miss Laing emphasizes
that much practical work must be
done. Several hours a day must
be devoted to visiting families
of all types, recreational institu
tions, and to the solution of the
numerous problems that come
before the Associated Charities
in a day. Lectures on various
sociological problems will be heard
from time to time. The wide
facilities of the university are at
the disposal of the director and
the students and Dr. Morse
thinks the course will prove very
practical.
The university is also intend
ing to organize a course in First
Aid w,ork, including lessons i n
elemen talI hygiene, first aid, care
af sick and surgical dressings.
More announcement s as to details
af this lat ter course will b)e e'n
noneed bitor'.
